Need to change SB IRQ but win2k wont let me!

I have a soundblaster live card that for some reason, windows 2kpro sets at IRQ 9. I need to change it, but the "use automatic settings" box is shaded in and i cant assert manual control over the settings, even though i am logged in as the admin. I downloaded the new drivers from Creative labs, uninstalled, reinstalled.....autoexec and config editing do nothing (not even sure if it should)

what do i do? Is there an .ini or something I can edit to change the settings?
